Again, please try to keep in mind I wrote this a year ago. It's way rough, and the chapters are short, but still. :)
chapter eight
Alice's POV
"Alice, this baby is killing you." Jasper said pleadingly.
"I can't, Jasper. I just can't." I couldn't look at him, his words hurt.
"I can't lose you. I won't lose you." he said.
I still didn't look at him. "You won't."
he forced me to look at him. "Alice, please don't go through with this."
"I have to." I said seriously.
Jasper walked out of the room, leaving me standing there, alone, shocked, hurt.
After a few moments, I went after him.
I found him outside, on the edge of the lake behind the houses.
"jasper?" I asked, walking up to him slowly.
He didn't answer. I walked up behind him.
"Jasper? Jasper, honey?" I said softly.
He turned to face me, a grim expression on his face.
I smiled, trying to make him relax.
It didn't work.
"Alice, you know how I feel. Why even bother talking about it?"
"because I don't want to fight. I don't want you angry."
he sighed, looking back to the lake. "neither do I. But I will if I must."
"Please, just listen to me for a minute." I pleaded.
"Okay." he said, turning to look at me again.
"I know the risks. I know the pain. I know what this must be putting you through. But I'm willing to go through all that, willing to go through anything for this baby."
"I know that's how you feel. But what I don't get is why." he said.
"Now that I know we have a chance, a chance at a family, I want it. I would never forgive myself if I didn't go through with this."
